Coach Talk

jacob's Ingeneous Team
Listen, jacob's Ingeneous Team, we do respect the confidence. Playing not one, but TWO starters with zero points (Dawson Knox and J.K. Dobbins), while still getting a W... that's a bit too risky for us traditionalists! We just ask you to please limit those flashy shenanigans to the regular season. Try it when the postseason rolls around, and we'll be toast.
L's Legendary Team
There's a decent chance that L's Legendary Team may be a better GM in the NFL than in fantasy football. Accumulating just 14 total targets this past week, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently helped their teams' causes by running decoy routes and blocking downfield.
